BLUFFTON, Ohio – A pair of Bluffton University seniors have been honored for their work on the volleyball court in 2025. Jenna Woods (DeGraff/Riverside) was named First Team All-Heartland Conference, the first time since Remi Bower in 2020-21 that a Beaver has earned first team honors! Emma Organ (Lambertville, Mich./St. Ursula) collected Second Team All-HCAC recognition after missing her entire junior campaign with a knee injury.
Woods has been dominant at the net all season, hammering a Heartland Conference-best 442 kills for the Beavers, 52 more than #2 in the HCAC! With more volleyball yet to be played, Woods is currently 7th all-time with those 442 putaways and 5th place is firmly in reach. She hit .162 this season with 121 digs, 38 blocks and seven aces. Her 3.75 kills per set have Woods 3rd all-time for a single season.
A Second Team All-Heartland Conference selection as a freshman, Woods is currently 9th all-time with 1,212 career kills, just 10 away from all-time great Jenna Eshleman.
Organ was outstanding as the Bluffton libero all season long. She has 596 digs, 2nd in the HCAC and 11th all-time for the Beavers. Her 5.05 digs per set are 3rd in the conference. Organ was also a weapon at the service line, firing a team-high 54 aces (3rd HCAC).
For her career, Organ is tied for 17th all-time with 1,327 digs and she is a 2-time Heartland Conference Player of the Week.
